Chapter 301: Temporary Pause to the Storm (1)
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
It was already night, and the silver moon hung above the mountains.
In a mountain col more than five kilometers away from the Hidden Dragon Cave, a large group of soldiers were holding torches and walking quickly into the depths of the mountains.
On a nearby mountain ridge, Ye Jingtang was holding his spear in his right hand and a Jun Mountain Saber in his left while walking along the ridge. When he arrived at the edge of a cliff, he threw the Jun Mountain Saber down to prevent Yao Wenzhong from picking up the weapon.
Luo Ningtuo was walking with a heavy saber beside her and a strong bow on her back, which she had just used to disrupt the Prince of Wu’s guards. freewebno vel.com
Pei Xiangjun was holding her spear and bringing up the rear. While walking, she paid attention to Ye Jingtang1 s complexion from time to time.
Ye Jingtang had struck Xtianyuan Hongzhi twice just now. He wasn’t injured, but the Wind Pool Reverse Blood had squeezed his body too much. When used, the move would injure the governor meridian. At this moment, his back was indescribably painful. It was indeed a little uncomfortable.
After the three of them walked along the mountain ridge for a long time, the bird circling in the sky landed and rested on Ye Jingtang’s shoulder. It indicated that the Imperial Court’s troops had discovered the Prince of Wu’s whereabouts. Hearing this, Ye Jingtang stopped walking and found a cave nearby to rest.
The naturally formed cave was not big. Before coming here, they had prepared some supplies.
Ye Jingtang placed his spear on the ground, unfolded a rolled-up blanket, sat down, opened a canteen, and took a big gulp.
Luo Ning leaned the Jun Mountain Saber against the wall, sat down in front of him, lit a candle, and asked, “How does your back feel?11
“It’s a little uncomfortable.” Ye Jingtang took off his tattered robe and silver soft armor. In the middle of his broad back, there was a dark red mark that extended from the back of his head to his waist.
Pei Xiangjun knew what it felt like after using the Wind Pool Reverse Blood. She put down her weapon, squatted behind him, took our a bottle of Jade Dragon Ointment, and poured it on her hand. “Lie down.”
Ye Jingtang couldn’t see his back, so he used Ning’er’s thigh as a pillow and lay down on the blanket. “Although this move is powerful, the side effects are a bit serious. 1 should use it sparingly in the future…”
The space in the cave was very small, and Ye Jingtang was tall and strong. It was a little awkward for Pei Xiangjun to kneel down beside him, so she stepped over Ye Jingtang and sat astride on his legs to apply the medicine. “When you use the Wind Pool Reverse Blood, it’s best to pair it with the Azure Dragon Claw, which can pierce through armor and people. Other moves are easy to block. Once you miss, you can only run…”
Ye Jingtang felt quite comfortable being ridden by Third Lady, but a certain part of his body felt uncomfortable with him lying on it. After chatting for a while, he pulled our the rolled-up medicine book from his belt and opened it to examine.
The medicine book was crumbled, but it was still complete. In it were all secret formulas developed by Zhang Jinglin. Although there were only seven or eight types, all of them were unique medicines with unique effects. The Snow Lake Powder was among them.
Luo Ning was sitting on the ground, letting Ye Jingtang rest on her leg. She also looked at it and asked after some thought, “What happened to Guan Yujia just now?”
“He used the Heavenly Carnelian Bead1 but couldn’t withstand the medicine. Then he exploded.”
At this point, Ye Jingtang carefully took out the white bead from the leather armor behind his waist.
But when he saw it, he found fine cracks on rhe bead. It should be because it hadn’t been in the box and the tumult from his battle with Yao Wenzhong.
Ye Jingtang’s heart sank when he saw this. He quickly got up and distanced himself from the two women to prevent the medicinal liquid from contaminating them. He frowned and said, “The bead in Cheng Shilu’s hand last rime should also be a Heavenly Carnelian Bead. The effect and feel of this bead are exactly the same. Only I seem to be able to use this bead. If anyone else touches it, something will happen…’1
Luo Ning still had lingering fears about Cheng Shilu’s death. After thinking for a moment, she raised her hand and fanned the air gently. She smelled the smell emitted by the bead and immediately felt the same discomfort as last time, causing her to hurriedly lean back and distance herself. “It’s bone-burning hemp. Doesn’t your hand hurt?”
Ye Jingtang’s palm felt warm and comfortable. There was nothing unusual about it. He leaned closer and sniffed. “1 feel fine, and ir smells pretty good.”
Hearing this, Pei Xiangjun leaned closer and sniffed. She immediately frowned. “It’s indeed bone-burning hemp. Why aren’t you reacting to it?”
Ye Jingtang fell silent for a moment and seriously thought about the details. In the end, he could only reply, “Maybe my physique is different from ordinary people’s-. This thing took two-hundred-fifty grams of Snow Lake Flower to make. Since the bead is cracked, it will lose its effects over time. It will be a waste of the heavens’ gift. What should we do now?”
“Two-hundred-fifty grams of Snow Lake Flower…” Hearing this, Pei Xiangjun and Luo Ning fell silent for a moment before asking, “Will anything happen to you if you use it?”
Ye Jingtang had used the imitation, the Earthly Camel Bead. The only discomfort was that merely expanding the meridians without protecting them would cause the meridians to tear. Other than this, it felt quite good.
As for this authentic Heavenly Carnelian Bead, it had 250 grams of Snow Lake Flower concentrated in it. Clearly, it had an extremely powerful meridian-restoring and protecting effect. In theory, it could expand all the meridians in the body without any damage.
But the effects of straightening the bones and malting the muscles flexible’ still couldn’t be unleashed. After using ir, it might be like the Earthly Camel Bead and cause excessive essence qi. Even if he played with Ning’er and made her cry, it might not be able to alleviate it for her…
There were already cracks on the Heavenly Carnelian Bead , and the smell meant that the medicinal strength had been evaporating…
Ye Jingtang hesitated for a moment before saying, “Two-hundred-fifty grams of Snow Lake Flower is equivalent to half of the reserves that Great Wei has attained since the founding of the country. If the medicinal strength runs out, Great Wei might not be able to make another one with the strength of the entire country. I’d better try using it.”
Hearing this, Pei Xiangjun and Luo Ning didn’t say anything else. They got up and stood a little farther away from the cave entrance.
Ye Jingtang took a deep breath. He didn’t crush the Heavenly Carnelian Bead directly. Instead, he carefully flicked it like he was peeling an egg, making the cracks expand. The medicinal power seeped into his palm bit by bit.
As the cracks in the Heavenly Carnelian Bead expanded, his palm quickly felt moist. Then the same feeling as last time came. The soreness and fatigue in his arm quickly recovered, and even the damage to the meridians on his back quickly recovered.
Ye Jingtang sat cross-legged on the spot, crossed his palms, sandwiched the Heavenly Carnelian Bead between his palms, and closed his eyes…
